Sluggish UI has been discussed previously, but I'm curious about Apple Silicon vs older Intel Mac. I've been running Bitwig 3 on a 2010 Mac Pro 5,1 / High Sierra / 5770 GPU without any graphical performance issues. Running Bitwig 5.1.2 on a 2023 Mac Studio M2 Max / Ventura 13.6.3 is slow to the point of being unusable.
What's puzzling is that when I uninstalled the app, I found a crash log containing:
Crashed Thread: 0 Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread
Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT)
Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000
Termination Reason: Namespace SIGNAL, Code 6 Abort trap: 6
Terminating Process: BitwigAudioEngine-ARM64-NEON [753]
There's a lot more detail in the log, but Bitwig never hiccup'ed nor crashed. So I'm wondering if whatever generated this log is the cause of the sluggish behavior. By sluggish I mean nearly a second for the UI to redraw play button to stop button in the transport after I click it, settings window working correctly in one display and stalling in the other, and scrolling taking at least 1-2 seconds to respond to a mouse drag, then stuttering.
The error message "Namespace SIGNAL, Code 6 Abort trap: 6" shows up quite a bit in an online search, usually referencing a software coding issue.
I'll welcome others' experiences and suggestions, thanks!
